Cell Mechanics : From Single Scale-Based Models to Multiscale Modeling.
Ubiquitous and fundamental in cell mechanics, multiscale problems can arise in the growth of tumors, embryogenesis, tissue engineering, and more. This book discusses the tool of microrheology for investigating cell mechanical properties, and multiphysics and multiscale approaches for studying intrac...
